First Commission for a Kitless Pen

[EatenAppleCrafts]

This was my first commission, and it was a bear. Lots of failures, blowouts, separations, etc... Well worth the learning though, I have a whole different way of turning now thanks to @Pierre--- . My biggest challenge was the joinery between the acrylics and the aluminum, that is where most of the failures occurred. Just wanted to say that I love this site and all of the knowledge therein.

Beautiful work! The colors are excellent and the Aluminum division points really do a superb job of accenting the colors on both sides.
